Arizona man's lively obit a Twitter hit

A dead man known as the Bunkster is getting the last laugh when his obit uploaded to Twitter went viral.

The deceased, Randall Jacobs, from Arizona, died at age 65 “having lived a life that would have sent a lesser man to his grave decades earlier,’’ according to his obituary that appeared in the Arizona Republic.

Known also as Uncle Bunky, his obit showcases how “he spoke in a gravelly patois of wisecracks, mangled metaphors and inspired profanity that reflected the Arizona dive bars, Colorado ski slopes and various dodgy establishments where he spent his days and nights.”

A Brooklyn artist named Chris Santa Maria identified himself as Uncle Bunky’s nephew and author of the obit.
